April 8, 2021 - WHITBY, ONTARIO--(Newsfile Corp.) - Environmental Waste International (TSXV:EWS.V) (the “Company” or “EWS) announced today that it had received an additional $600,000 investment from Torreco, Inc. (“Torreco”) toward the previously announced agreement for Torreco to invest $7 million in EWS’s wholly owned Ellsin Environmental Ltd. (“Ellsin”) subsidiary. The funds will be used to convert EWS’s pilot plant in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario into EWS’s first commercial scale clean tech recycling plant utilizing the Company’s patented microwave technology. After Torreco has invested its $7 million the joint venture will have a valuation of $10 million.

Torreco has now invested $1 million and owns 10% of Ellsin. It is committed to investing an additional $6 million over the next four months. After investing $7 million, Torreco will own 70% of Ellsin; EWS will retain 30%. The $7 million will be used to expand and modernize this state-of-the-art plant utilizing EWS’s latest technology. EWS will receive a royalty of 6% of revenues, and the facility will be available for demonstration to potential EWS customers throughout the world.

After investing $7 million, Torreco will be granted the right to build three additional waste tire facilities in Ontario over the next five years if it meets certain conditions. If Torreco successfully builds these three additional facilities it will retain the exclusive rights for Ontario. The expansion and modernization of the plant will require certain regulatory approvals, and there can be no assurance that the additional $6 million will be invested.
